OK Computer by Radiohead

Sunshine Hit Me by The Bees

Had some good tracks but too many snoozers. If you made it an 8-9 track album that clocked in around 30-35 minutes, it could be solid. Enjoyed the last 2 songs to close it out

Little Earthquakes by Tori Amos

Liked it.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads

Underrated compared to their other essential Heads’ albums. Love this record

The Bends by Radiohead

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple

Not bad, but not good. Machine Head is the only Deep Purple record that should be on this list. Also one of the dumbest album covers ever.

Deserter's Songs by Mercury Rev

This was bad. I wish I could give it zero stars. I’m embarrassed to have listened to any of it

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt

Robert Wyatt had been an integral member of the Soft Machine, Canterbury, England’s greatest art-rock band. Where other art-rockers looked to wild theatrics and grandiose concepts, the Soft Machine plunged ahead into their uncompromising music. This brilliant solo album was being written before Wyatt fell from a five-story window and broke his spine. He finished it in the hospital, realizing that the album would have much less of his drumming and far more of his gentle, emotionally compelling voice. The arrangements are delicate and often sparse. His bride-to-be Alfreda Benge helped inspire him to new levels of personal introspection that still play out as complex puzzles. “Sea Song” is a perfect opener, settling into a melody that slips around the modest keyboards. “A Last Straw” begins as an atmospheric piece before breaking into cherubic vocals. “Little Red Riding Hood Hit the Road” is psychedelic with a tough, acid edge. “Alifib” is a soothing match of instrumental weirdness and mild, heart-melting vocals.  Wyatt remains a relative obscurity in the U.S., despite his massive talents.
